For Rheumatoid Arthritis:I'm a 69 yr old woman with seronegative RA - hence it took a long time for a diagnosis. Many rheumatologists do not understand that you can be seronegative & have RA. Sad.
After several years of anti inflammatory drugs & cortisone I was prescribed Humira. Took about 2 months & wow! Not so much pain relief but having so much less fatigue.
As I live in Australia my experience with obtaining the drug is different to the US. My rheumatologist makes application through the federal government after other drugs have failed & they heavily subsidise.
Thus far no obvious side effects. However, reading other's comments I wonder about the flushes at night - never had them as a menopausal symptom......
Wish you all the best in managing RA

For Rheumatoid Arthritis:I was using Humira in conjunction with Methotrexate. Both meds were working marvellously, but out of the blue I became sick after each dose of both medications. RA dr took me off the Methotrexate, and it was awhile before restarting Humira. I’ve had 3 injections with no signs of relief, which was significantly different from before. Very discouraged & scared.

For Bacterial Vaginitis:Hi ladies!
So I had BV and went to doctors to get prescription. The doctor prescribed ONE dose of 2000MG ( 4 pills of 500MG) and take it all at once!!! After day two my symptoms are GONE!!! Maybe the doctor should prescribe one dosage for BV as it's very effective!!!!!!!! Consider it

For Bacterial Vaginitis:I was prescribed this antibiotic, after one day symptoms reduced. However this made me feel constant nausea and complete loss of appetite. I had to force my lunch down at work. Although it gave me nausea I wasn’t ever vomiting with it. In future I will only take this antibiotic if there was an urgency for it

For Crohn's Disease, Maintenance:Love this med. take every 2 weeks works great. Did Remicade before and it's so nice not to have to go to the hospital. Very nice to do injections at home totally recommend

For Crohn's Disease, Maintenance:This medicine has given me my life back. I no longer worry about knowing where every rest room is wherever I go. My only side effect is a headache the day after the injections.
